MISSONI + TARGET

Target's latest collaboration with Italian fashion label Missoni is ideal for the discerning consumer who is also focused on obtaining a good value. Missoni showcases its range in this collection, designing bedding and kitchenware, men's, women's and children's clothing, and even a bicycle. Each piece evinces Missoni's trademark: bold color, chevrons, zigzags and stripes.

“In the ’50s and ’60s, the Missoni brand really developed a voice that transported it out of Italy and into the United States, and that is what the aesthetic is inspired by in the campaign.” - Will Setliff, vice president for marketing at Target

With prices ranging from $3 to $600, with most pieces priced under $40, this collection really is for everyone. Missoni for Target items will become available online and in Target stores September 13 through October 22.

This 400-plus collection is Target's largest designer collaboration to date. Surprising given that Angela Missoni has been quoted as saying: “As Missoni, we have a big name but we are not a huge company, so there’s not much product around.”

“Also, on the matter of clothing, why are you anxious? Take a lesson from the lillies of the field, how they are growing; they do not toil, nor do they spin.”

-Matthew 6:28

“Style is something integral, it's something that's you, it's part of your psyche. You have to study yourself, learn who you are, learn what you really like, what you don't like, what you're comfortable with, how you feel, how people react to what you wear, and how much it bothers you if they don't like it. It's all of those things. And I think that that requires some hard work that a lot of people don't wanna do, but if you don't do that, you can copy somebody else's style, but it wont be yours. It ain't what you do, it's the way that you do it.”
